Description

It was the weeks before Christmas and all through the land

We cope with the stress with a whisky in hand.

It’s 1 December. The advent calendar opens. You realise in semi-panic that there’s just 24 days to buy all your presents. And 24 days to meet all those deadlines before your holidays begin. The boss is breathing down your neck. The family is breathing down your neck. The impending doom looms... that c-word no-one wants to hear in December.

It’s almost Christmas.

But fear not! We have just what cures those ails. It’s warm, it’s inviting, it’s hella smoooooooth… and it’s waiting for you at Hares & Hyenas on 1 December: The Whisky Before Christmas!

The anticipated follow-up to July’s Frisky Whisky: A Vaudeville History of American Whisky, this is another whisky tasting with a difference. It’s a collaboration between two leading ladies of their craft - Ren Butler of The Whisky Social and cabaret powerhouse Sophie deLightful - which will offer you some of the finest whiskies to get you through the silly season, complemented by a stunning cast of vaudeville entertainers. There will also be special promo codes for anyone keen to order featured products for Christmas presents.

The first Frisky Whisky packed out the booths at Greenwood Loft, and lovers of whisky (both seasoned and newcomers) enjoyed entertainment including fire performance, cabaret, belly dancing, burlesque and hula hooping. The closing act by Miss deLightful had the crowd on its feet singing and dancing, and sent guests out into the night on an absolute high.
